I was in the process of ordering a blade that could effectively utilize the K20 or K20X when I realized that the new Tesla GPUs run with only PCIe Gen 2 according to: [url]Page Not Found | NVIDIA
Cutting the pcie bandwidth in half can be costly for some applications we are working with, so it is important to have the highest possible interconnect to the GPU.
Is there any information regarding future cards coming out based on either the gk110 architecture or a future architecture that will be supporting PCIe gen3, and can we get any estimated time frame for such a release?
I will echo seibert’s question – is PCIe 3.0 currently only disabled at the driver level? Being stuck with Gen2 for a whole product cycle would be unfortunate.
